Cocklebur will not flower if exposed to 8 hours of dark and 16 hours of light. It will flower if exposed to 16 hours of dark and

8 hours of light. However, if the 16 hours of dark is interrupted with a brief period of light the cocklebur will not flower. What triggers cocklebur to flower

Answer:

Photoperiodism

Explanation:

The process explained in the question is called "Photoperiodism" which refers to the plants' reaction to the length of the dark and light period in a day.

When the dark period is interrupted with a certain period of artificial lighting, the plant thinks that the day had a longer period where it's "light" than it is "dark" so it gets tricked into flowering. Same concept can be applied in reverse for the plants who flower during longer periods of dark.

I hope this answer helps.

Answer:

Reflex action is the sudden uncontrolled reaction towards a certain stimuli eg response to hot iron

Reflex arc is the path taken by reflex action to a certain stimuli

Diagram depends to

Receptor(eg skin), receptor nerve(sensory neurone),centre reflex arc(spinal cord most of reflex action) they met relay neurone, motor neurone and ends at reflexor (eg muscle)

Double fertilization results in the formation of select one:
wariber [46]
Double fertilization results in the formation of  one diploid embryo and a triploid endosperm. Double fertilization is characterized by the formation of two embryos; the embryo proper which is diploid and the fusion product of the central cell with one male gamete which is triploid. This secondary triploid zygote develops into the endosperm.

Put the following steps in the correct order from 1-9
storchak [24]

Answer:

transcription of mRNA from DNA

small ribosomal subunit binds to mRNA

initiation complex formed with addition of large ribosomal subunit

translocation

codon recognition (non-initiating site)  

peptide bond formation

ribosome reads a stop codon

polypeptide chain is released from the P site

ribosomal subunits dissociate

Explanation:

The above describes the process of translation in the ribosome. After transcription of DNA to mRNA, the mRNA is taken to the ribosome to undergo translation, here the mRNA binds to the small ribosomal subuits and to other initiation factors; binding at the mRNA binding site on the small ribosomal subunit then the Large ribosomal subunits joins in.

Translation begins (codon recognition; initiating site) at the initiation codon AUG on the mRNA with the tRNA bringing its amino acid (methionine in eukaryotes and formyl methionine in prokaryotes) forming complementary base pair between its anticodon and mRNA's AUG start codon. Then translocation occurs with the ribosome moving one codon over on the mRNA thus moving the start codon tRNA from the A site to the P site, then codon recognition occurs (non-initiating site again) which includes incoming tRNA with an anticodon that is complementary to the codon exposed in the A site binds to the mRNA.

Then peptide bond formation occurs between the amino acid carried by the tRNA in the p site and the A site. When the ribosome reads a stop codon, the process stops and the polypeptide chain produced is released and the ribosomal subunits dissociates.
